From people who came through it

  • โ€œDear stranger, i was in the same place eighteen months ago. For me it was family telling me what I can eat at weddings. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart. Praying for you.โ€

  • โ€œWhen I was first diagnosed, I felt like my body had betrayed me. I was angry. I still am some days. But you learn to adapt. The pump, the hypos, the family comments. It is a lot. But you find your people. I found a diabetes nurse who listens. I found friends online who get it. You will too. Just keep going. And do not let anyone tell you what to eat at a wedding. You know your body.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was numb feet. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back. xโ€
